In the first two capacity market ex-post settlements, prices in the Sistema Interconectado Nacional (SIN) have cleared above the cost of new entry for a gas combustion turbine, suggesting that market conditions are tight. While fundamentally true, gas market conditions appear to be driving this outcome.
